A Bear and q MonEOose.


Misky, though favo1ite with everyone,
was perhaps not altogether source of un-
mixed pleasure to us. To an unsuspecting
visitor the sight of him bearing down at a
loose trot to inves ,igate matters was any
thing but reassuring; and it was in vain for
US to tell our guests that 1t was ''only his
fun" A gallant lieutenant coming on board
one day in full dress proved too great a
temptation for Bruin, who Immediately
impossible to make him let go until the dis
comfted officer had reduced himself to his
shirt sleeves, when, delighted with his sue
cess, the delinquent shufied off. He was
apparently almost Indifferent to him. A
smell of burning being one day discovered
forward, one of the crew proceeded to in
vestigate the cause, and found Misky stand
ing upright on the top of nearly red-hot
stove, engaged in stealing cabbages from a
shelf above. He was growing in an under
tone and standing first on one leg and then
on the other; but he nevertheless went on
slowly eating, needless of the fact that the
soles of his feet were burnt entirely raw.
Endless were the stories about him and the
serapes he got into, but punishments were
apparently in vain, for he got worse as he
grew older, and after having devoured por-
tions of the cabin skylight and mans
thumb, and finished by drinking the oil out
of the binnacle lamp, he was shipped to
England and found new home in the bear
pit of the geological gardens.
Misky's sworn enemy was the mongoose,
into whom seven devils at least had entered
His sole object in life was mischief, and it
must be confessed that he never idled for q
moment. Whether biting ones toes as one
lay asleep in the early morning, capsizing
the ink-bottle, bolting surreptitiously with
some coveted morsel from the dinner table,
he was never still; but his greatest happi-
ness-for it was attended with that spice of
anger which gives the true zest to sport
was to "draw" Misky. When that unsus-
pecting animal was rolling his unwieldy body
about the deck the mongoose would approach
noiselessly from behind and nip him sharply
in the foot. Long before the huge paw had
descended in a futile effort at revenge the
little rascal was safely under cover, on the
lookout for another opportunity, and the
bear might just as well have attempted to
catch mosquito. A more thorough little
pickle never existed. But he was very pop
| uiar, and when one morning he disappeared
never to return there was great lamentation
among our men.

Take Care of the Pennies.

Americans are said to be careless, money spend
ing people, who disdain, do not care to practice
those small economies which the French and Ger
man nations, for example, find necessary There is
probably some truth in this charge for in America
money comes easier than in the old countries, and
also goes easier Yet, America is the land of inven-
tions and of ideas, and of universal progress.
Among the new ideas, one which has oceasioned a
good deal of talk is the adaptation of Lactart and
Honey to the cIre of coughs and colds. This prep
aration is put up by the Avery Lactate Company of
Boston. the manufacturers of the famous Lactart

line effective Lactart and Honey has before
been tried. DR.. O. S. Sanders, one of Bostons dis
tinguished physicians, writes: I recommend Lac

by many others. Lactart and Honey is exceedingly

The writer passed some time in the French
and German camps on the eve of the Franco
Prussian war. The popular feeling then was
a good indication of what was to occur at the
first provoeation. Germany arose as one
man; it arose for an idea, and France went
as far as personal enthusiasm for a romantic
figure could carry it and broke down when
the imperial puppet was removed. There is
an interesting field for study in the two ma
tions to-day as they stand logically pitted
against each other by reason of elashing ira
ditions and opposing principles of govern
ment. There seems to be, however, COM
plste reversal of circumstances; and much
that favored Germany in 1870 is not with
Germany to-day, but is with France; and
much that weakened France under the sec.

The petition against the watering of paved
streets at the expense of all the taxpayers con-
tinues to find favor 1t makes men who live
on very dusty street which is not watered at
public expense weary to have to help pay for
keeping the dust down in a paved street for
the benefit of somebody else who does not
have to help pay for making their street
pleasant.
Cottonseed oil has become very useful. It
is not only freely used for olive oil, but in
West large Quantities of it are used in max
ing cheese, and this cheese is exported as a
genuine product of the dairy. The exports
of American cheese fell from $14, 1000, 900 in
1881 to Sc, 500, 900 in 1886, and this decline
is said to have been caused by adulteration.
Further inquiry would doubtless disclose
the fact that cottonseed oil is largely used in
the manufacture of lard.
Those who are complaining because land is
not free are very unreasonable. There are
millions of acres which they can have almost
for the asking. It is estimated that there
still remains unsurveyed about 5000, 900
acres of public land in Colorado, IL, ,O0O, 600
in Arizona 80, 600, 900 in California, 40, ,000,
900 in Dakota, 1000, 900 in Florida, 44,000,

Washington territory, and SO on. Few of
the members of the new party really want

have all the beer and tobacco they want, and

cussion.

tion and fidelity toward the King, love OF
the Fatherland and obedience to the States
laws. The oath also binds the bishop to
refuse to tolerate by any of his clergy any
teaching or action opposed to the spirit of
the VOWS taken by the bishop in making the
oath, and to abstain from maintaining either
within or outside of the country any rela-
tions prejudicial to the security of the coun-
try.
"W.," of the New York Journal of Com
merce, very trustworthy observer, has
something to say about Florida which is of
general interest, as follows: It was nom
sense to expect emigrants to come to Florida
and pay high northern land prices for wild
land. But another and decisive cause is
visible. The South Florida railroads freight
and passenger charges make the country too
expensive to live in. The land in Florida is
all poor, and is only machine, in a fine
climate, to turn manure into vegetation.
Fertilizers are as essential to Florida farm
ing as hoes and plows and water. The
freight charges on fertilizers make farming
more costly down here than in New England.
The farmer is long way off from both his
place of purchasing supplies and his market
to sell his produce, and an expensive railway
eats up all and more than all his little prof
its. His candle burns at both ends. The
result is not only that the emigrant who is
here wants to go away, but he writes and
warns his friends not to come. Thus there
is no invitation to immigration except what
is extended by spectators in land.

Sanative is no accidental discovery, no old
grandmother's remedy, but is the culmina-

work of years of profound study, and an e1-

practice ever enjoyed by an American physi-
clan. This medicine had radically cured
many thousands of cases where hope had
almost vanished, and life was continued

at nominal cost. For sale by all druggists.
